Let me talk to you a little bit about Burna.

I'm a gun owner.

I understand that sometimes you need to pull the trigger and you don't ever point a gun at somebody unless you intend on killing them.

But sometimes it doesn't call for killing somebody.

I mean, you you know,

that moment of hesitation

is

critical

in both directions.

You need to be prepared for 99% of situations where it doesn't call for lethal force.

And

the best way to defend yourself is with a burna launcher.

This is, you know, the police have stopped using tasers and,

you know, pepper spray.

They're using tear gas.

They're using burna launchers to do it.

It's happening all over the the country.

These should be in every school because you're not killing anybody with it, but you are stopping them for about 45 minutes.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is

the Glen Beck program.

Well, hello, you sick twisted freak.

It is Friday.

We get right to the top of the news in just a minute.

First, let me tell you about Jace Medical.

If you're planning on taking any trips in the foreseeable future, maybe a little summer vacation for the family,

that'll be great unless you need medications you just can't get.

Or somebody, you know, somebody always gets sick on vacation.

I don't know why, but I always do.

And

if you're someplace, I don't know, up in the mountains or you're in a different country or whatever, and you got to go find a doctor, you've got to go find the pharmacy, et cetera, et cetera, just call your doctor at home and say, hey,

I've got some, I don't know, Tama flu, whatever it is that you want to take, a Z-PAC,

And I'm just going to start a flight, a Z-PAC now.

We'll test later when we get home, whatever it is.

You want that medication on you.

You want it there with you when you're traveling and when you need it.

I want you to go to jace.com, enter the promo code Beck.

Make sure you have the right notifications on hand the moment you need them.

It's jace.com promo code Beck.

Well, let's say hello to

Mr.

Pat Craig, who's joining us and filling in for Stu Baguer, who is living the life of,

well, I don't know, a millionaire life.

I mean, I'm not going to the Super Bowl, are you?

No, no, I'm not.

No, that's why I'm here.

Yeah.

But yeah, every year, my son's time, he does that.

I know.

He does it.

He does it.

You know, the wealthy 1%.

My son asks me every year, Dad, can we go to the Super Bowl?

No, we're not going to the Super Bowl.

I don't know.

I am.

At times, I have no problem spending money.

Other times, it really bothers me.

That trip to the Super Bowl seems like such a colossal waste of money.

Yeah.

Is it just me?

It's a lot.

No, it's a lot.

It's a lot.

Yeah.

I mean, it's beyond reasonable.

Beyond reasonable.

It is.

Yeah, it is.

And I think the amazing thing with Stu is he never has tickets before he gets there.

I know he buys them.

Yeah, he buys them there.

Buys them there.

Books his hotel stay at the last second, finds the tickets at the last second, and it's pretty amazing.

I'd rather just watch it from the comfort and privacy of my own home.

Yeah, especially because there's going to be so many tears shed on his part, you know, with the Eagles.

Yeah.

I mean, you know, what I really like, what I like about Patrick McHomes is he's going to give Stu hope up until about the last 90 seconds.

And then he'll just be crying.

He'll just be crying the rest of the night.

Yeah, that's certainly been the Chiefs' M.O.

all year long.

I mean, it really has.

I don't like it.

I don't like it.

You know, I don't like it.

I don't like waiting for that last minute and a half.

Have you become a Chiefs fan over the

Chiefs fan?

Yeah, I am.

Why am I?

Because I really like, I like watching Mahomes.

I like Andy Reid.

Okay.

I do too.

Mahomes is just...

I mean, Mahomes is just, he does things, not as much this season as last season, but he just does things that you just don't ever see.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Yeah, he's just, I think he's incredible.

He is.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And I like the attitude of the team.

You know, it's like I hate the Ravens because I think they're just thugs.

But it's just me.

All right.

Let me just go through some good news here on the Doge custom, the Doge cuts and the money saved.

Just this week, I got an update for you.

36 contracts have been terminated across six agencies,

including a DHS contract for people and cultural survey and climate support services.

I don't even know what that is.

$165 million saved on that.

$44 million up from $1.6 million last week.

22 lease terminations of underutilized buildings.

These are the buildings that are sitting empty in Washington, D.C.

We have these buildings all over the country.

We should get rid of them, sell them.

Why are we holding on to them?

22 lease terminations.

We didn't even own these.

We just leased them.

And we saved $44 million this week.

Money saved $1 billion.

85 DEIA related contracts.

Now, what's a DEI?

Could you look that up for me, Pat?

What is a DEIA?

I love how they create these terms and then they just keep adding letters.

The 85 DEIA-related contracts been terminated.

Department of Ed, GSA, OPM, EPA, DLO, or DOL,

Treasury Department, DOD, USDA, Commerce,

DHS, VA, HHS, State Department, NSF, NRC, NLRB, PBGC.

We have, what is this?

Wow.

Anyway, we saved a billion dollars.

The DEIA is for diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.

Ah, okay, so maybe that's a billion dollars because we were building ramps

for

transgender wheelchair people.

We saved $45 million on DEI scholarships in Burma.

$1.6 million, cut three leases, mostly of empty office space.

And the tenants are all relocating to nearby buildings in the GSA.

We saved $145 million, 16 DEIA contracts, Department of Labor, Transportation, Agriculture, Commerce, HHS, and Treasury.

That's a whole separate list.

And $420 million, almost half a billion dollars,

current and impending contracts and canceled two leases initially focused mainly on DEI contracts and unoccupied buildings.

So we saved some money this week.

And

I put out a tweet last night and so far I haven't had anybody respond.

Let me just read the tweet.

I invite any Democrat or rhino to come on my show and defend spending taxpayer money on sex changes and LGBT activism in Guatemala, helping the BBC value the diversity of the Libyan society, promoting inclusion in Vietnam through two separate groups, How Inclusive, rebuilding the Cuban media ecosystem, and men who have sex with men in South Africa.

If you're a Democrat or a rhino who thinks American tax dollars should be spent on any of this, call me.

Call me 9 to noon Eastern Time, 888-727-2325.

We're waiting for your call right now.

Operators are standing by.

Watch those lines explode.

Yeah, let me go to the phone bank there with Pat.

Pat, who do you have on the phone?

Yeah, I got

no one, of course.

Nobody.

No one.

No.

I would love to see somebody take you up on that, though.

That would be hard to do.

Oh, please.

Please.

And I'll let you speak.

I'm not going to argue with you.

I just want to hear your defense.

I just want to hear your defense.

By the way,

Donald Trump,

he did it again.

He just did it again.

He went out and he said,

yeah,

we're going to fire everybody to USAID.

Oh, a phone.

Wait a minute.

He's at a phone bank.

Is that for me, Pat?

Is that a

spam wrist?

Sorry, spam, spam wrist.

Okay.

All right.

Okay.

Okay, so he went into USAID and he said they were going to reorganize it in the State Department, but they decided that the pushback on USAID from the employees was so great, he cut all 10,000 employees.

And I think he saved 300 people in there.

So out of 10,000, 300 were worth saving.

Okay.

Okay, so we got that going for us.

He also

has nuked all government contracts with the mainstream media.

So, huh?

Everybody's very upset about this on the

page.

Defend, please, please.

You could also come on and defend why Politico and everybody else should be getting, you know, Politico,

what was it, $34.5 or $32.5 million during the Biden administration?

Just defend that.

Go ahead.

Defend that.

Did you see the CEO at Politico make the statement about

where that money is coming from?

Fantastic.

Yes, you have it.

Let's see.

I think so.

What he said was that Politico itself, Politico.com, receives $0.

And for 18 years, they've gotten not one penny from any government agency.

Now,

Politico Pro

is a different matter.

Now, that,

sure, yes, some government agencies have contributed there.

Yeah,

at their $10,000

subscription level.

Yeah, some governments are involved.

But that's just, that's because we help update them on legislative maneuvers.

Oh.

That they couldn't, I'm sure they couldn't find that out anywhere.

No.

Politico.

Pro, right?

No, the government can do everything better than the private sector, except for letting them know what the government is doing.

Right.

Right.

He also said,

look, this is just transactional.

This is just, that's all this is.

We're providing a service.

Yeah, I'd like to know what that service is.

We're in behind the paywall now, and we're just working with our attorneys to make sure that we're not violating anybody's IP.

But it's very impressive, Pat.

It's very, very impressive.

Oh, I'm sure it is.

When you see it, you'll be like, oh, I'd spend 10 grand on that.

In fact, I'd spend 10 grand.

Can not everybody just use the same password?

Because that's what everybody else does.

You subscribe, and then you're like, ah, Biden 123 exclamation point.

And everybody's on that.

Apparently, they don't do that at the government.

So they have all the $34 million of subscriptions that are being paid.

Now, as somebody who,

well, started the prescription or the prescription, the subscription platform,

let me just say,

if somebody was paying $34 million

and they were just buying subscriptions,

And I knew they were all in the government

and it was just transactional.

I have nothing to do with them.

Nothing.

I don't talk to them, nothing.

But they're giving me over a four-year period $34 million

when

we start to produce things that I know the Biden administration is not going to like, or somebody from the Biden administration completely separately just phones us up and says, hey, you might want to run this about Hunter Biden.

I, in an editorial meeting, just because of my fiduciary responsibility, I do say, you know, if we don't run that story,

we're putting at risk $34 million.

You know, that if we write this story that goes against them, that that's putting this, I'm fine with doing it.

That's what I would say.

I'm fine with doing it.

I just want you to know the cost of everything you're doing.

Okay?

You don't think that those conversations happen?

That's the most innocent

is that

somebody in that building knows there's $34 million coming from the United States government.

Now, they say that this doesn't, you know, this isn't going to affect them.

Most of their people are, you know,

they're, you know, just people in the private sector.

Oh, then why are you bitching so much?

I mean, and your business, I'd like to invest in your business.

Can you just open up your books?

Because I'd like to invest in your business.

If you can lose $34 million

and be like, that's not that big of a deal.

Our business isn't really focused on that.

Wow.

Can I?

Can I invest in you?

Yeah.

It's pretty good.

It's really good.

Really, really, pretty good.

So

now,

Axios, another company that probably

should be looked into.

Axios is defending Politico.

And they say the story appears to have started started when Politico missed payroll on Tuesday because of a technical snag.

MAGA media dug into the public records on USAspending.gov and uncovered that the government had paid Politico $8.2 million in the last 12 months.

And people link these two facts and wrongly assume that Politico missed payroll because those millions came from USAID.

Well, that's not the story.

Is that the story to you?

No, not at all.

No.

I don't care how they missed payroll.

I'm sure their employees do, but

the point is, you know, why is all that money coming from the federal government?

That's the point here.

The $34 million

over four years is the point, not how they missed payroll.

But that's what they're trying to make it about, because that's not why they missed payroll.

Because that way they can say it's a conspiracy theory that they missed payroll.

That is called a red herring.

You would have learned that if you ever took a single English class, you would know what a red herring is, and that's exactly a red herring.

Now,

Elon Musk is in trouble, and again, the phone lines are way open.

We go to the phone bank and Pat Gray, who is there with the people answering the phones.

Pat, who are you talking to right now that wants to defend all of this?

Yeah, them.

No one.

Okay.

Nobody.

All right.

Well, when you get somebody on the phone, you just

ring that bell.

Okay.

Come right to me.

All right.

888-727-BECK.

I'm going to let you speak.

I'm not going to argue with you.

I just want to understand how you're defending any of this.

Now, the Doge is feeding information.

Now, this is going to come as a shock to you.

They're feeding federal data into an AI system

so the AI can sort through and find certain things.

And that just, that shouldn't be done.

That shouldn't be done.

That should have been done the first day we had AI.

That's what AI is for, to take complex things and boil them down and be able to track what we're looking for.

The government says, oh, we don't track that.

We don't know how to track that.

We can't.

Well, AI does.

It's like, you know, these agencies,

you know, they just think they can just get things, you know,

to some other place overnight by using something called Federal Express.

Well, we're still using Pony Express, and that's the way it's supposed to be.

It's ridiculous.

Now, they also are going after some Doge staffers.

Apparently, Marco Alez,

Pat, Marco Alez,

Marco Alez, Marco Alez.

He sounds white, doesn't he?

Yes.

Just

okay.

I mean, just without even, I mean, I hate to judge somebody on their name, but Marco Alez sounds to me like John Smith, you know what I mean?

Or Adolf Hitler.

Okay, so Marco Alez, he's a 25-year-old, part of a cadre of Elon Musk's lieutenants, deployed by the Department of Government Efficiency to scrutinize federal spending, resigned after the Wall Street Journal asked the White House about his connection to an account that advocated racism and eugenics.

Okay.

Nobody's defending that.

Nobody is defending that.

Well, maybe Adolf Hitler and that guy who's,

you know, the fighter last week, that guy, he's probably defending, but nobody else is.

But there is something to be said here on this.

10 seconds, station item.

Okay, so this guy, and

I don't know who he is other than Marco Alez.

I know nothing about him.

He apparently had a deleted account when he was 16 years old, and he was saying really racist things like, I would never marry out of my own race.

Well, he's Spanish.

I mean, he's Hispanic, so I mean, I guess you would call that Laraza, right?

Anyway, so they're trying to make him look like a Nazi.

And I just want to point out, I'm not sure if they've changed their rules, but Nazis don't like Hispanics either.

So

I don't know what's going on here.

You should ask people at La Raza because they know all about the race.

Anyway, so he's out.

And good.

I'm glad that he's out.

However, they're also trying to get somebody

else out.

Because CNN, and we have the audio, if we have time later, we'll play it.

CNN was disgusted that this guy's online name is big balls

and to hear jake tapper and the crew over at cnn discuss this is really worth on a friday really worth a couple of minutes uh we'll get to that coming up

this is glenn beck

all right

thank god that uh donald trump is standing behind Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli people.

I don't know if you saw what he did yesterday.

I mean, it's hard to keep up.

He took on the International Criminal Court

and

sanctioned them.

Good.

A lot of Jews in Israel are still suffering every day.

Thankfully, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is still there, still on the ground, still doing God's work and helping out in any way and every way they possibly can.

But they're only able to do that because of support from people like you and me.

I can't stress enough how important your help is.

So, Donald Trump signed this week the No Men in Women's Sports executive order, and J.K.

Rowling just posted a picture of him holding up the executive order surrounded by the girls.

And J.K.

Rowling wrote, Congratulations to every single person on the left who's been campaigning to destroy women and girls' rights.

Without you, there'd be no images like this.

And I think that's kind of a dig at Donald Trump because she's not a fan of Donald Trump, but she's like,

you know, thanks to you, now Donald Trump is like doing the right thing and the common sense thing.

I think that's what she's saying.

Is that the way you read that?

That's how I interpret it.

Yeah.

Because she's pretty liberal.

So, yeah,

she just hates how stupid the left has become on the women's issue.

And she's a woman who promotes witchcraft.

I mean, how do you lose her?

Right?

She said, this is why you care about a tiny fraction of the population.

Gender ideology has undermined freedom of speech, scientific truth, gay rights, women and girls' safety, privacy, and dignity.

It's caused irreparable physical damage to vulnerable kids.

Nobody voted for it.

The vast majority of people disagree with it.

Yet it has been imposed top-down by politicians, healthcare bodies, academia, sections of the media, celebrities, and even the police.

Its activists have threatened and enacted violence on those who dared oppose it.

The actual victims in this mess have been women and children.

This movement has impacted society in disastrous ways, and if you had any sense, you'd quietly be deleting every trace of activist mantras, ad hominem attacks, false equivalents, and circular arguments from your ex-feeds, because the day is fast approaching when you'll want to pretend you always saw through the craziness and never believed it for a second.

That is a powerful statement.

Powerful statement from J.K.

Rowling.

And it's true.

I read a story in The Atlantic this morning that is hysterical.

Pat, when you think of Nova Scotia, what do you think?

What do you think of?

Clubbing baby seals.

That's

my

vacation activity.

Right.

Because I go to Nova Scotia or Newfoundland to club baby seals.

Yeah.

On a regular day.

All right.

Yeah.

All right.

Not exactly what I was looking for, but

I think you're in the same family.

I immediately think cold.

Okay.

Yes, it is ice.

Cold.

Yes.

Okay.

That's why the baby seals are there that you have to club.

Anyway,

so

and you have to be on ice when you do it because then you get to see the bloodstains on the ice.

Exactly.

So I'm reading the Atlantic and there's a story about the people who actually moved to Canada because of Donald Trump and because of cheese.

And it's so fun.

It is so funny.

These people are so stupid.

One lady was like, you know, I moved up to Nova Scotia.

She's from California.

I moved up to Nova Scotia.

I just didn't realize how cold it would be.

Wow, you did your homework.

Wow.

That's literally the first thing I think of when I think of Nova Scotia.

I think it's like, cold.

It's cold.

It's cold.

And my wife would not be happy there.

No matter.

They could have the great, Jesus could appear on earth, but if he's in Nova Scotia, my wife is like, it's too cold.

I'm not going.

Okay, so now on the gender stuff, the NCAA has backed down now.

They've changed the transgender athletic policy.

And they said, you know,

look, you can't compete unless you were assigned that sex at birth.

Oh, you were assigned that.

Oh, my gosh.

From now on, women's only sports will be only for women.

And they said the, quote, President Trump's order provides a clear national standard.

So now they're getting out of it.

Now, why are they doing that, Pat?

Why is the NCAA getting out of this?

I think

because that's the way the

flow is going.

No.

Money.

Money.

Government money for the NCAA.

They'll lose.

Their colleges will lose government.

money.

It's all about the money.

So they don't really care.

And you know that because of

the

other two that are not getting government money,

which I find amazing, Major League Baseball, the values on diversity remain unchanged.

Oh,

that is great.

Oh, I love the commissioner of Major League Baseball.

You know, our values on diversity remain unchanged, but valuable that's another value that's pretty important to us is

well we always try to comply with what the law is

that's a value that you always try

they try to obey the law you try look

yeah we've tried

can we i mean clearly you have to rule not guilty we were trying not to break the law

that's not a value man not breaking the law that's not a value.

If it is, that's something like you say when you're in prison.

You're like, you know what?

When I get out, damn it, I'm going to try not to break the law this time.

Okay, good.

Good for you.

Now, the other one that is a little disappointing is the NFL.

They're continuing their diversity initiatives, all the DEI stuff,

including forcing interviews with minority candidates.

And the NFL says, we're just doing the right thing.

We're doing the right thing.

Are you?

Can you get any more diverse than the NFL already is?

You're 75% black in the NFL.

I mean, your diversity initiative would probably be to get more white people in the NFL.

Wouldn't it?

Isn't that your diversity?

I don't see any transgender players.

No, that's true.

Yeah, they're

I don't see any.

Yeah.

I don't see any.

Not a lot of women either.

And notice not a lot of women.

Not a lot of women.

And I think that is, I mean, it's only fair when it's fair, Pat.

And, you know, the other thing that really kind of bothers me about the NFL is notice, you know, you say, can't you get more diverse?

Well, not in the front office and not with the quarterbacks.

Look how many white quarterbacks there are.

Where are all the black quarterbacks?

Have you turned on the NFL on Sunday lately?

There might be three white quarterbacks.

Oh, gosh,

what a group of dopes.

What a group of dopes.

By the way, did you see, do we have the Carls Jr.

ad?

Okay, we got to play this.

New ad for the Super Bowl this weekend.

Or is it Carls Jr.?

Let's be real.

Everyone's going to be a hot mess after the big game.

Been there.

Done that.

And I've got just what what you need to cure that post-party bug.

The Carls Jr.

Hangover Burger.

Egg, double bacon, yeah, you need that double bacon.

Tar broiled beef, hash rounds, cheese, and sauce.

Just the way I like it.

And guess what?

It's free the day after the big game.

You just have to download the Carls Jr.

app and sign up for my rewards.

So get your free hangover burger on Monday, February 10th.

Men

are back.

Yeah, you haven't seen an ad like that for a while.

No, two.

Two years ago, Stu and I were on the air talking about the Carls Jr.'s ad and saying how far we have come

from, you know,

from in advertising, how that stuff just,

you could not put the carls jr ad on no not two years ago no way no no and that's what we were talking about and here we are two years later donald trump wins and carls jr has the yeah i'm gonna say it cnn the big balls to play it

good

good

congratulations common sense is coming back just

a little bit

uh let's see oh samantha power is out at usaid oh don't say that don't say that.

Yeah, that's

gosh.

We lost her.

We lost her.

We lost her.

She's one of the like 9,700 employees that have lost their gig.

Yeah.

Yeah.

She's one of them.

She's going to have to live on that teacher's salary.

Her husband casts on Steve.

No.

You know, at Harvard.

Yeah, they're

going to try to make ends meet.

It is heartbreaking.

She said it was jarring, very jarring.

Here she is, cut four.

Well, you can imagine when you suddenly in your inbox find a termination notice or a

leave of absence notice that you didn't expect to get on a flawed predicate that you're doing radical leftist insubordination.

That's a flawed predicate.

It's pretty jarring.

And because there's so many lies and falsehoods circulating

and so many claims that people are sort of not with the program, I think people are just completely dislocated.

There's no stable ground on which to walk.

Right.

And of course, most of them have been laid off, so they're worried about how they're going to pay the bills and how they're going to make rent.

Oh, no.

No.

Man, don't say that.

Sweetheart, that just hurts.

That just hurts.

She was caught completely off guard.

Just

out of the blue.

Donald Trump.

I could see where on November 4th, she might not have had any inkling.

But November 5th, about 10 o'clock at night you should have had a pretty good idea of what was happening you might have been saying I think I should send out a resume yeah I don't think he's gonna keep me on wow you know that's that is crazy and look at look at what she's saying all the lies all the misinformation again

Phone lines are wide open.

I'll take anybody,

anybody that can defend what USAID was doing, what they were spending their money on.

Go ahead.

Call me now.

I'll give you, I'll give it, I will duct tape my mouth shut for you to try to make a case to the American people that these programs that we have exposed over the last five days were in our national interest.

Go ahead, call me.

And what do you think?

88-727-BECK.

She wouldn't, Samantha Powers wouldn't even come on the show to explain.

To

tell you what the lies are and what the information is that we're getting and we're spreading.

No.

Tell me, where's the mistake here?

Okay,

other than the fact that you were funding Politico to the extent where when you got shut down, it messed up the payroll.

Other than that,

where are the lies?

Where is the misinformation?

What do we have wrong here?

Are you saying you didn't do any of these expenditures in these other countries for transgender plays and programs and to make LGBTQ people feel better about themselves?

Yeah.

Well, you know,

where's the argument?

Well, let me have CNN.

I said that I was going to

threaten this, but here's CNN.

They've uncovered something horrible about these people on the right.

Cut three.

So this is a 19-year-old high school graduate who has used the unfortunate nickname Big Balls online.

So that would be one way that we could refer to him.

He is now working at Musk's behest inside Doge.

And we looked into his background.

And so we found

several notable things, Erin, one of which is that this individual has founded multiple companies, including one with another unfortunate name, Tesla.sexy LLC, which he established in 2021.

He would have been around 16 years old.

Now, this LLC controls dozens of web domains.

I'm curious, curious, though, Kara, how well does even Musk know these young men, do you think?

I have no idea.

I think there is no vetting whatsoever.

As you can see, that's taken place.

It took Katie and the really great team.

Wired has done an astonishing job.

Astonishing.

That was astonishing information.

That's probably why he was hired for all this ridiculous nonsense and other nefarious things.

But, you know, there's an expression in space.

It's

not technology.

It's not a

feature.

If they had other nefarious things, they would have led with that and not

he calls himself himself online Big Balls and started and started a company with this unfortunate name Texa dot Tesla dot sexy oh my gosh oh my gosh next we'll be airing Carls Jr's ads on the Super Bowl with women in them that are actually born women

all right let me tell you about Lear Capital

the things that Donald Trump and his incoming administration are already doing for this country

I

love it.

I've never seen a president do this.

Never.

I mean, he told me he was going to do this, and I just didn't even see it.

I mean,

that's some vision.

That's some vision.

Well, the problem is, is the left is starting to mount their defense.

And, you know, one of the things to stop all this is

collapse the system.

And I wouldn't put it past some of these people as we start to dig in and find the billions of dollars that have been laundered through our government.

So our dollar is at risk

and we don't know how things are going to go.

Hopefully they're going to be fine.

But may I suggest you

pour some precious metals into whatever it is you've saved for your retirement.

Own some gold or silver.

You can find out why it might be your best performing asset in 2025.

Call 800-957-GOLD.

800-957-GOLD.

Back.

We'll be right back.

You know, so I'm just thinking about the excuses of what that conversation was on CNN just a few minutes ago, where they're blaming these kids that are uncovering everything in Doge.

And, you know, one of them

actually had, when he was younger, he went by the by the name big balls on

on online that was his his handle and then he also started a company when he was 16 called tesla.sexy which is unfortunate now that's the worst they have on him uh and

and then uh they go on and say and well they were probably also doing other various nefarious things oh but you don't have any of that and then i i'm i'm thinking about this and i think you know, I've seen this somewhere before.

And I think I saw this every Saturday morning on Scooby-Doo when they unmask the villain and the villain says, and we would have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for these pesky kids.

I mean, that's exactly what it is.

You know, then Scooby comes in.

We did it.

We did it.

I think we're watching a Scooby-Doo episode.

Hello, America.

It's Friday.

We get right to the news in 60 seconds.

First, let me ask you something.

Do you want to fix the problem of school shootings in this country?

I'm sure you do.

I know I do.

How about this?

What if you give teachers?

If you could give teachers and administrators administrators in every office, every classroom in a school a weapon that won't kill anyone, including student bystanders, but would ensure the attacker was incapacitated for about 45 minutes.

Would you do it?

The Burna Launcher is a non-lethal alternative to safeguarding your home.

I have them in my cars.

Everyone should have one.

Legal in all 50 states, no permits, no background checks required.

It can be used by all age groups, over 18.

The Burna Burna Launcher, powerful deterrent, tear gas, kinetic rounds, 60 foot range.

One shot can incapacitate an attacker with tear gas for up to 40 minutes.

Why wouldn't we have these in all of our schools?

Honestly, why wouldn't we put these in our schools?

Because somebody doesn't want to stop the problem.

That's why.

I want you to go and check this out from Burna.

Especially if you're in a school district, you should have these in every classroom.

Honestly, it's foolish not to do this.

All right.

Pat Gray, welcome to the program.

Great to be here.

Thank you.

Yeah.

I was reading this.

Reading.

This great article this morning about these kids that everybody's attacking because they can't say really

anything about the information that they've come up with.

You mean the Doge kids?

The Doge kids.

Yeah.

The four young coders

who were

in the basement of the Treasury beginning at 2 in the morning on January 21st.

So this started right away.

And within a few minutes, one of them sent out a message: We're in.

We got all of it.

They'd already mapped three subsystems.

They were tracing payment flows across agencies.

They had revealed patterns that career officials didn't even know existed by dawn of the 21st.

This was already going on.

This is going to, people are going to prison.

There is so much

here.

Yeah.

Yeah.

They're going to go to prison.

They're just going to go to prison.

And it makes me happy.

You know, I can look at all of this

corruption and for the first time in my life, not be pissed because I know something's going to happen.

Because they're doing something about it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

They're doing something about it.

They're stopping it and these people will go to jail.

There's no way they're not going to go to jail.

Where there is illegal activity, yeah, I think people are going to jail this time.

I think they will be held accountable.

They will.

They will.

They will at least lose their jobs, and this will be sealed up and shut up.

And I hope there are, you know, if there are Republicans that are involved in any of this, they should go to jail too.

Right.

Yeah.

Absolutely.

If you broke the law, if you're, if you're money laundering, and that's really what this is, there, there, I can tell you right now, there are billions of dollars that have been laundered through NGOs and

whatever else they are.

Ukraine.

Yeah, big time.

I mean, big time.

Zelensky himself said they were missing $100 billion that they were supposed to receive from the United States.

Thank you for saying that.

I said that the other day.

Somebody challenged me on it, and I have looked for that story.

I saw the video of him saying.

Oh, I got to, we can find that because he absolutely said, yeah, there's a hundred billion missing.

We don't know where it is.

Right.

Huh.

And it was in a press conference, right?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I saw him say that, and I can't find it anywhere.

I've even gone to ChatGPT.

I've gone to Grok.

Can you find this?

And I can't find it.

I can't find it.

But, you know, $100 billion, he said, we never got.

Well, where did that go?

$100

billion.

That changes the world.

That's money for revolutions everywhere.

Do you know what $100 billion could do in the wrong hands?

You know how many people $100 billion could kill if you're a terrorist?

I mean,

this is insane.

It's insane.

And anybody who is trying to,

you know, say this is good, you know, or, you know, that,

you know, USAID shouldn't have been shot, you know, shut down, or these kids, I swear to you,

play the big balls thing.

Excuse that expression.

Like you're, uh,

let me clutch my pearls.

I just never heard big balls before.

The CNN people were very, very offended by big balls.

It's an online name of one of these guys who's working with Doge.

Listen to how they try to smear him and

really

create something that's not a problem.

Listen to this.

So this is a 19-year-old high school graduate who has used the unfortunate nickname Big Balls online.

So that would be one way that we could refer to him.

He is now working at Musk's behest inside Doge.

And we looked into his background.

And so we found

several notable things, Erin, one of which is that this individual has founded multiple companies, including one with another unfortunate name, Tesla.sexy LLC, which he established in 2021.

He would have been around 16 years old.

Now, this LLC controls dozens of web domains.

I'm curious, though, Kara, how well does even Musk know these young men, do you think?

I have no idea.

I think there is no betting whatsoever.

As you can see, that's taking place.

It took Katie and the really great team.

Wired has done an astonishing job here.

You know, I could make a joke that's probably why he was hired for all this ridiculous nonsense and other nefarious things.

But, you know, there's an expression in technology.

It's a feature, not a bug.

Yeah.

So, a kid, I just want you, America,

we've seen that billions of dollars of your tax dollars have just been wasted and spent on things you didn't know about.

We're going against the national interest.

We're going into the hands, you just paid

$1.4 billion that we know of in the first two weeks.

$1.4 billion went to NGOs to transport people from their homes in South America to the border.

$1.4 billion, dollars your tax dollars but you should know that one of the kids that found that when he was 16 he started his own company called Tesla.sexy LLC

I mean what he was probably raping children in the back seats of those Teslas we don't know but it's probably nefarious he's 16

and what they can find on him was he started an LLC,

Tesla.sexy.

Wow, they got the goods on these guys.

Now that was three years ago because he's 19 now and he only has a high school education.

I mean,

does Elon Musk even know that his online screen name was Big Balls?

Probably why they hired him.

This is, these are adults having this conversation.

And as I said just a few minutes ago, we've seen this every Saturday morning.

It's called Scooby-Doo.

Okay.

Every Sunday morning, what, or every Saturday morning when we were growing up, what happened?

They unmasked the villain and they said, this is who it is.

And then the villain looks and says, and I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for those pesky kids.

Right?

That CNN just reenacted an episode, every episode of Scooby-Doo.

Every episode.

I mean, I think when we start talking about Doge, could you record this for me, Sarah, real quick?

I just, we need to do, we need to start playing things like,

hang on just a sec, like this.

Talking about Doge.

I think we need that.

Every time we talk about a Doge story, we need to start.

A new scum snack.

It's crazy.

It's embarrassing.

It's embarrassing for a supposed actual news network to spew that kind of nonsense.

It's embarrassing.

They don't know what to do.

They don't know what to do.

It's so sad and pathetic.

I mean, these are adults.

These are Americans.

These are educated people.

And I would, I contend, over-educated people.

And they are, they cannot see

the forest.

They just keep looking at the tree.

And you're like, dude, our country is being robbed blind.

It is corrupt.

What are you talking about?

It's, you know, they are the president of Mexico.

How dare you say our drug cartels run our country?

Yeah,

are you

what everybody knows that everybody knows that otherwise you wouldn't have all those politicians killed by the drug cartels the minute they say they're gonna stop the drug cartels.

How are you not run by the drug cartels?

I mean, if you come out against them, you're dead.

It's just self-imposed blindness and stupidity.

I mean, stupidity comes in lots of forms.

Nancy Pelosi says, this is her latest.

Democrats likely would have had more significant losses if Biden didn't drop out of the race.

What the hell is that story about?

Okay.

You know what that story is about?

That story is about Nancy Pelosi because they're having an internal squabble.

She's defending herself because she's the one who decided he couldn't be president.

She's the one that orchestrated all that.

And so, you know, there are some reasonable Democrats who are like, you know, who orchestrated all that?

How did that happen?

And so she's defending herself and she's, she's talking about they would have had more significant losses.

Sweetheart,

sweetheart,

you're living in a dream world.

All of this stuff is over.

It doesn't matter.

You're trying to hold on to power.

How old are you?

970 years old.

You should be in a retirement home or surrounded by your grandchildren at your home.

You shouldn't be doing this anymore.

But you know you've got to stay in because you have to protect all of the lies and the corruption that you were involved in.

Fetterman is starting to make sense.

The more the brain damage wears off, the more conservative this guy becomes.

Fetterman says Democrats haven't learned the lesson.

He said, we've lost white men, I think, forever.

There's no way to get them back.

He says, Anybody who is calling Republicans fascist and trying to shame people who voted for the GOP, he said, When you're in a state like Pennsylvania, I know and I love people that voted for Trump.

They're not fascists, they don't support insurrection and those kinds of things.

It's that the Democrats have become too, quote, extreme and fringe.

Well,

amen, brother.

Yeah, wow.

You

have James Carville, the space alien that James Carville is, saying this is a level of jackassery.

Listen to this.

For my outrage, these are two things that Democrats have done that are so unmoored to what anyone in the country thinks or feels like.

It's almost impossible.

The first one is Democrats and progressives in New York are advocating for bereavement pet leave.

Okay, so in other words, if your cat dies, you get three days of paid leave.

Does anyone even know, like in rural America, like where I grew up, how many dead animals are in your life?

In the entire history of the United States, let me tell you something.

A sentence that never ever, ever has been uttered.

Well, Martha, Fido died.

I can't bail hay today.

I mean, come on.

I mean, please think out.

And fortunately, no one's going to overtly publicize this, although the right's using it in some places.

Just how clueless you sound to people who live in the middle of the country.

It's like you're living a different thing.

Life and death on a farm is something that happens every six hours.

I mean, my God, stop.

End quote.

That's James Carville.

Wow.

Wow.

It is.

And it's so satisfying to know that, I mean, let me

let me take you through something that

Trump did just yesterday.

Let's see.

He

took on the,

shoot, where is it?

He took on the mayor of Chicago.

They're actually going after

these guys who are

trying to thwart ICE.

Did you hear what happened in, I think it was Denver yesterday?

Everybody was tipped off that ICE and the FBI and DEA were coming in, right?

Yeah.

They were tipped off.

So they only got one of those gang members from

Venezuela.

You don't think Pam Bondi and ICE and Donald Trump are going to track that person down, whoever leaked all of that information?

Sure, hopefully.

He will find them.

He will find them and you will go to jail.

You guys think that they're playing a game.

It's like we've said about the Republicans forever.

Republicans have been playing this same game like it was 1961,

and they didn't realize for years the game has changed.

The game, Donald Trump has completely changed the game 100%.

He has changed it to radical transparency.

And it's not going back.

And people are going, under this this guy, people are going to pay a price if you've broken the law.

And if you are obstructing ICE, you're breaking the law.

And

cities like Chicago are now coming out and saying, you know what?

We don't care.

We'll fight them.

We'll fight them in the courts.

That's fine.

You'll fight him in the courts.

But you know what you're also going to do?

He's going to stop giving your city any federal funding.

And amen.

Amen.

You shouldn't get a dime from the rest of us if

you are supporting things that are destroying our country, making it unsafe and driving up all of our costs for housing and everything else.

Look what you're doing to your own people, your own homeless people in Chicago.

You're defending those guys, criminals?

Not a dime from the federal government and people will cheer.

All right, back in just a second.

What you eat can have a huge effect on your health.

We know that.

You are what you eat.

Okay, well, you're not going to feed your child food that could sit on a shelf for two years as the only source of nutrition, right?

I mean, you might go to McDonald's once, you know, but you're not feeding three meals a day.

That's what we're doing with our kibble food, with our pets.

I want you to try the Rough Greens 90-day challenge.

It means for 90 days, all you have to do is sprinkle rough greens on top of your dog's food.

Then just watch the results.

Within 30 days, you're going to see a shinier coat and an increase in energy.

You're going to see that, I think, on day one or two.

By 60 days, your dog is going to have a stronger immune system, less shedding, and improved joint function, all thanks to the live nutrients that you've added back into his or her diet.

And by 90 days, you're going to see better digestion, reduced inflammation, improved heart health.

You might even reduced his or her risk for cancer.

So I want you to take this 90-day jumpstart trial bag challenge.

Do it now.

This is normally a $20 bag of rough greens, but you can get it for free if you just pay for the shipping.

Go to roughgreens.com, use the promo code Beck, R-U-F-F-Greens.com, promo code Beck.

Just cover the cost of shipping.

You don't have to change your dog's food to improve his health.

Just add a scoop of rough greens.

10 seconds, station ID.

So, Glenn, we do have somebody who is willing to defend,

I guess,

the expenditures from USAID.

Okay.

Actually, we have somebody.

Maybe we should wait

until after

we can start.

Yeah, we could start.

Why don't we start?

I just want to hear.

Brian.

Brian, how are you?

Hey, Glenn.

Pretty good.

Boy, oh, boy, I'm thrilled to finally get through to you.

Well, great.

I'm glad to have you on.

Are you a longtime listener?

Tell me about yourself.

Oh, sure.

I would say that I'm a long-time listener.

I mean, I obviously listened to Rush Schlimberg there for decades.

Good.

We start with ad hominem attacks.

Good.

All right.

Go ahead.

That's right.

Well, I'm trying to learn from you, Glenn.

I really try.

I try to mimic you, and I appreciate that.

Anyway, the reason for my call.

All right.

The reason for my call is to try to defend some of the spending that we're talking about.

First off, you need to understand that I would love to see waste and corruption eliminated across the planet.

Okay?

Just eliminated completely.

But I don't

see that happening at this time.

So what I like to think is that...

Well,

you are seeing it to some degree.

You're seeing the beginnings of it.

Okay.

Well, that's good.

I'm glad you informed me of that because I'm not.

Well, no, no, wait.

Hang on just a second.

That's what I...

No, no, please.

You know, I'm trying to have a reasonable conversation with you, Brian.

If you want to be a smart ass the whole time, waste somebody else's time.

I'd like to have a real conversation.

I'm going to interrupt anybody who called?

Do you remember that?

Well, you're being a smart ass.

Now I'm going to take a break, and we'll just cool down here a little bit, Brian, and maybe try to treat each other with some respect.

And then you can defend the cuts that they have made at USAID.

Love to hear it, Brian.

Back in just a minute.

This is Glenn Beck.

This is going to be a learning experience.

All right.

It is sad to recognize the abortion pill has,

you know, has been the pro-abortion left's response to overturning Roe versus Wade.

Hey, let's just send pills out to kids so they can have abortions in their bathroom and then flush the baby's body down the toilet.

Oh, that doesn't cause any problems.

Thank God there is a miraculous abortion reversal pill that is now available.

As long as a woman takes it in a certain amount of time after taking the abortion pill,

it can reverse the effects.

And the Ministry of Pre-Born is leading the charge with that, working to save as many babies' lives as they can.

I am proud to be partnering with Preborn.

Every day, they sponsor free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing abortion reversal pill in the cases where they can.

Plus, they can help the mother for up to two years after the baby is born.

So we care about the mom and the baby.

This is the way to have compassion, and we should do it ourselves if we'd like the government to do less.

Check out my show, Pac Ray Unleashed, every weekday, 7-9 live, or you can check it out anytime and anywhere.

You get your podcast.

Yesterday, I made the statement on the air several times and several times today that no one,

no one can,

in their right mind, defend the things that USAID was spending money on.

Some of these cuts, I mean, first of all, I'd like the defense of USAID that is a CIA operative that has overthrown government after government after government.

They've overthrown the Ukrainian government twice in the last 20 years.

You know, you want your tax dollars going for shadow ops from the CIA that are not run by the president or have any oversight whatsoever?

Also, can you defend $1.5 million

in rebuilding the Cuban media ecosystem?

$1.3 million from USAID for Arab and Jewish photographers, $2.9 million to teach Sri Lankan journalists how to avoid binary gender language, $4.5 million to stop disinformation in Pakistan.

$2.1 million to the BBC

to teach them the value of diversity in Libyan society.

Now, there is one brave gentleman who can defend these things and tell us

why we should

stop paying attention to it, I guess.

His name is Brian, to his credit.

He was on a few minutes ago.

He

hopefully

will stop with the name-calling and everything else and just get to the facts, because I would like to have a real understanding of somebody who says they can defend USAID and the way this spending has been going.

Brian, you have the floor, sir.

Hi, my name is Brian Bennett.

I'm calling from Bittersweet Farm in Hewleton, New York.

My wife and I have farmed together for over 40 years.

I've seen a tremendous amount of graft and corruption in our government over those decades and more.

The reason for my call is to attempt to defend the spending of money on things that I think are of value.

Specifically, there was a

quote that said something in the effect that do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Helping the least amongst us is not a horrible idea.

I believe that mercy and compassion have a tremendous value long-term.

I'm not too keen on this idea of short-term pain, suffering, and deprivation and cruelty.

So, as a taxpayer, if I have the opportunity to have the first Trump administration spend $83 million with JBS, that's Jose Batista Savano and sons out of Brazil, or to spend the figures you just listed, $1.9 million, $1.3 million, in assisting in some other nation, my taxpayer dollars are better spent on assisting gay men in Africa, like you said before.

It's better spent on

birth control, reproductive rights, women's rights.

It's better spent on a lot of the things that USAID spends their money on, on as opposed to spending the same amount or more money with Brazil, a BRICS nation, correct, and Spain, which is not a BRICS nation.

The money should be spent on investing in the future.

The future is only going to be a future if it has humans and humanity.

The more dangerous weapons we produce, the more money we spend on other things other than mercy and compassion, the more we're feeding into the end times, the more we're feeding into

the violence,

the more we're feeding into

the pain, suffering and deprivation of billions of people.

I believe the money spent at USAID has alleviated some pain, suffering, and deprivation.

I don't believe the money given by the Biden administration to Elon Musk or given to JBS by Donald Trump is in any way, shape or form alleviating pain, suffering and deprivation for anyone who's already not a billionaire.

So taxpayer dollars, if they're going to go to a billionaire or go to an impoverished country, send my

taxpayer dollars to an impoverished country.

I'm not talking about CIA overthrows, FBI overthrows.

We've known of that that type of problem since well before

We've seen it.

We don't need to continue it.

You want to eliminate spending?

Let's target the military industrial complex.

Let's target the agricultural industrial complex, the pharmaceutical industrial complex.

Let's not target those people who sometimes you say you want to win the hearts and minds of, because you're not winning my heart or mind.

Thank you.

Well, thank you, Brian.

I appreciate it.

That's not the question I asked, because there are, I agree with you with JBS.

JBS, the meat industry, the meat packing companies,

it's a mafia.

It's an absolute mafia.

It's a gang of thugs, and it needs to be broken up.

So I'm not defending spending to JBS.

I'm not aware of it, but I can look it up, and I would probably join you on that fight because I'm a rancher myself.

I live in a town of about 400 people that are all farmers.

I know what it's like to work hard, and I know what they're going through.

And big pharmaceutical, big agriculture is destroying our health and our ability to feed ourselves.

So I'm with you on that.

That wasn't the question.

The question is not,

would you rather spend it on this or that?

I think we could all agree there are things that we think would be really good to spend it on.

And I'm with you on compassion.

I'm not with you on government compassion.

If you want to have a real intellectual conversation about that, we can.

You know, about 40 cents of your dollar goes, if it goes to government, about 40 cents if that goes to the actual need, where if you are in a charity and you're under 80 cents a dollar, you don't get money anymore because people won't,

you're required.

to show where that money is going.

And if you're spending it on limousines and everything else, you're not going to get money.

You're going to to get a really bad rating.

The government would have an F rating on charity.

So we can talk about that.

But that's not, again, the question I asked.

I asked you to defend, not compare, to defend all of these things.

You say we've known about the CIA overthrowing.

Yes, we have.

But the church commission was supposed to stop that.

And USAID for 10 years, as I have been exposing them, overturning in the Middle East, overturning in Ukraine, overturning in Europe, overturning governments in

South America, and spending money to overturn our government in a color revolution.

As I've been saying that, everyone has said that's a conspiracy.

That's not what USAID does.

That is exactly what they do.

And if you are comfortable with paying the BBC

to somehow or another teach them the value of diversity in Libyan society, if you are truly okay with teaching Sri Lankan journalists to avoid binary gender language, I'd like to hear your defense of that.

What you said about compassion is accurate.

We're talking about government corruption in a fashion being exposed like we've never seen before.

And you and I both know, Brian, this is just the beginning of it.

And I, for one, as a taxpayer, want every effing Republican and Democrat and Independent that has been

using this as a system, as a cash drawer for themselves, their friends, or their petty little interests.

I want it to stop and I'd like all of them to go to jail if they broke a law.

Do you have a response now on

the actual question that I wanted an answer for?

I'll do the best I can then, because I agree with you that every

problem that has been created by the United States government needs to be resolved.

What I believe is, yes, I would rather spend, was it $1.9 billion,

$1.9 million.

We already went through this.

We already went through this.

please do not compare we could do that all day that's not the question if you want to talk about those items defend them

yes sending the money to any of those programs is an investment in the future in winning the hearts and minds the corrupt money

so tell me wait wait wait wait tell me what you know about sri lankan journalists um and their use of uh binary gender language can you can you tell me about that and what what this program is actually trying to accomplish?

No, I cannot.

Okay.

Okay.

So you're just giving it a pass, and I want to know why.

Why are you just giving it a pass?

The reason I'm giving it a pass is because I believe it to be that type of aid is an investment in the future of life on this planet.

Okay?

The corrupt part, the people that steal the money along the way, real problem.

Yeah.

Right, okay.

Well, you keep saying that you believe in investing in life on the planet.

I just want you to know,

scientifically, if you start to deny there's a difference between men and women, and you are promoting sex with women and women and men and men, you are going to hurt the future of mankind because you won't have babies.

Wow.

Well, that's insightful.

That is enlightening planned I wasn't I know you're a farmer you're a farmer I would think that you would know that when you buy a bull if your bull was just having sex with another bull would you sell that bull or would you say for diversity sake I want to keep feeding that bull

I would say for diversity sake, I'd keep feeding that bull and I'd put other cows in with the bull because my bulls have sex with bulls and my bulls have sex with cows.

That's what I witnessed this morning.

What I'm asking is if one of your bulls was like i'm only gonna have sex and and and brian i want you to respect the fact that i'm only having sex with bulls i'm not you could put me around women and cows but i'm not interested in them why are you being so hateful why would you sell me why won't you just keep me alive

yeah why would you why wouldn't i keep why would you

yeah why wouldn't you

why why would you Brian?

Why would you?

I do.

I do have to.

You're telling me, as a businessman, we're not talking about human beings here.

We're talking about business.

You as a businessman,

you'd make that decision.

No, not as a businessman.

I'm not a businessman.

Oh.

I'm a farmer.

You're a farmer.

Right.

Yes, I know.

But you, to produce food, you have to make money.

No, you can't do that.

And I know in my...

Oh, you don't?

No, think about this for a minute, Glenn.

You don't have to make all sorts of money beyond your expenses.

That's making money, right?

Right.

But if I'm keeping bulls that are not having sex and producing more cattle, then I'm losing money.

And I know how razor-thin

it is as a rancher.

I'll have a good year and I'll have three bad years in a row.

And if I didn't have another job, I wouldn't be able to keep my ranch.

So I'm making sure I'm as efficient.

oh is it another ballgame yeah I mean if you want to talk about food and food prices and the agricultural subsidies if you want to talk about no keeping a ball no I'm because I'm no

yeah I I just want I just want you to know go ahead

the reason that food is being produced is to feed people

that's the reason think it think it through and the reason

I know I know and that is great and if we lived in a communist country the country would support you and there would be no death and everybody would be eating.

What you have to do to feed people is actually make money so you can buy seed and fertilizer and everything else so you can produce more food.

It is the way the world works, Brian.

And also humankind works by procreation.

And so

I'm only bringing this up because that was such a big deal in your argument.

You brought it up three or four times about you care about the future of humanity.

Well, you can't make that point as hard as you have and also deny

that there is a difference between a man and a woman.

Brian, I thank you for the conversation.

Back in just a minute.

First, let me tell you about realestate agentsitrust.com.

There are some people out there who just don't believe in half measures, like at all.

uh everything they do they give a hundred percent of themselves doing it they do it happily and then they do it in a timely fashion and they do it right the first time and when one of those people becomes a real estate agent my company real estate agents i trust seeks them out so it can pair you up with with them when it's time to buy or sell a home

now

do i do that as charity work

No, I don't.

No, I don't.

Would I like everybody to have a great real estate?

Yes.

But for me to take the time to do that, I also have to have my company make money.

It's a crazy idea that Brian didn't understand.

But we'll pair you up, and I'm not charging you for the recommendation.

We do our homework, we find them, and then we pair them up with you.

This

is

Glenn Beck.

Brian and his farm of mercy, collecting all of the animals, the milk,

the cows that don't give milk,

and the strictly homosexual bulls that will not have sex with a cow.

He's, you know, because Jesus loves all the little children and all the little animals, too.

So

that's great.

And I'd love to get his recipe for success.

I'm sure a lot of farmers out there would like, you know, wow, how's Brian doing?

How is he doing it?

Just keep your useless bulls and your useless cows.

Just keep them.

Just keep them.

Just keep them.

Yeah.

You know, and

maybe you could even become a refuge for those milkless cows as a dairy farm.

It would probably work out really well.

It's a safe place for them because

I don't care about money.

I care about feeding people.

I do too, Brian, but you need money to do that.

Oh, my gosh.

Next, now serving caller number two, who wants to defend all of

the programs.

In the past, I've talked a lot about Jace Medical,

but

if you want a little refresher, Jace provides different cases full of emergency medications so you have them, you know, the second you need them.

It gives you protection and peace of mind, but don't take my word for it.

Let me tell you about Heather, who got a Jace case and immediately knew this was something that she'd been missing in her life.

She said the process is really easy.

All it takes to get a Jace case is to fill out a simple online form.

For her lifestyle, having one at home was really essential.

She has eight active and busy children.

So in her mind, it wasn't really a question of if I'm going to need this medication.

She just knew it was going to happen.

And so she has one that has the emergency kit that contains essential antibiotics and medications that treat the most common and deadly bacterial infections.

Even have ivermectin as an add-on if you want it.

Go to jace.com, j-as-e.com, enter the promo code code Beck10 at checkout for your discount on your order.

It's promo code jas.com, jace.com, promo code BEC10.

This is

the Glen Beck Program.

Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

We're glad you're here.

It's Friday and we got a lot to discuss.

We're going to get right to it in 60 seconds.

First, when bad things go down in the world, a lot of time they go down very, very rapidly.

And then what do you do?

Then what do you do?

They go down and usually usually the first thing that will happen is you're sitting there without,

you know, without food.

My Patriot supply is there.

Storing emergency food in your home is the right thing to do.

We still live in crazy times.

Your family could need it if something bad goes down.

But that could just be a loss of a job.

That could be, you know, like poor Samantha Powers.

from USAID, you know, Cass Sunstein's wife, she said yesterday she was shocked that she was fired and it just came down so fast.

Now she's going to have to live, you know, off of a Harvard professor's salary and whatever the left will give her.

So, gosh darn it, maybe she should have had MyPatriot Supply.

2,000 calories per day, 100% of your daily value of 12 essential vitamins and minerals, the kit will keep you going when every single meal matters.

Right now, they're offering $50 off their forward food kit.

So go to mypatriotsupply.com.

Grab yours now, mypatriotsupply.com.

Don't put it off.

Get your food kit today, MypatriotSupply.com.

All right.

I am so excited to talk to this guy because I saw a movie last week or the week before, and I kind of saw it against my will.

I got to be honest with you.

My wife was like, let's go see this movie.

It looks really good.

And there was that the other movie that I just saw last week, which was the Wahlberg movie and the plane, you know, and anyway.

I'm glad I saw this one first.

My wife was right again.

But anyway, I went and I saw Brave the Dark.

And the reason why I kind of was like, I don't know, it's because, you know, it just looked like a feel-good movie.

And I am still so

Pavlov with the reaction on, oh,

it's a movie made with values.

And you're like, okay, it's going to be preachy.

This is so good.

So good.

I can't recommend this movie highly enough.

It's called Brave the Dark.

And one of my favorite actors

is in it, Jared Harris.

He was in Chernobyl.

He played Queen Elizabeth's husband in The Crown.

He was in Sherlock Holmes.

He's really, really great.

And this is a great job of acting on his part and the guy who also played the lead role

of

Nathaniel Dean.

Now, the real

Nathaniel Dean was the producer, and he's on the phone with me now.

And I want to be really careful because

I don't want to tell the whole story because part of the brilliance of this movie is you don't know how it's going to end.

You don't know the full story.

So, Nathaniel, let's be careful on how we tell the story.

Thank you for coming on.

I appreciate you having me on, Glenn.

I'm excited to share this movie and this story and the incredible impact I think it's going to have on audiences.

Oh, my gosh.

And the fact that it's true, not based on a true story, but it's true.

This is your life.

What an amazing turnaround

on

you as an individual and the impact that this has had for so many years on so many people.

Talk to me a little bit about the guy who is, you took his name and now your father.

You were

given up for adoption.

You grew up in

an orphanage.

And, you know, by the time you were in high school, you were living in your car, right?

Yeah.

I had a pretty rough childhood filled with

probably some of the worst childhood trauma that a child can experience.

And so I grew up angry.

I grew up very distrusting of adults.

Went through the foster care system too.

And kind of at 16, I decided to run away.

And sadly, no one came looking for me

and ended up living in my car in the streets of a small town in New Holland, Pennsylvania.

So can we, can you tell, I just said giving up for adoption.

And because I don't know how to address this without giving anything away.

Do you want to go into that a little bit?

What do we know at the beginning of the movie?

Yeah, I mean, you know that something very horrible happens to my mother,

and I'm a witness to it.

That's all I want to give away on that.

But there's so much more.

There's so much more that happens

that you won't find out until the end.

Right.

And can I ask you, just without giving anything away,

is that part of the movie true?

Is that really how it happened?

To be honest with you, it actually happened a lot worse than what we portray.

Oh, my God.

We actually had to soften it quite a bit.

I think it was too much for people to take.

I mean,

I'm surprised I'm even talking to you today,

surviving what you went through.

And so you're living in your car, and the teachers, you know, nobody, everybody thinks, you know, you're not a good kid and uh and you fall in with the wrong crowd and you do uh knock over a i don't know a stereo store or something at the time and uh

now you're now you're in juvie

and away from school but one teacher takes notice tell me about this

yeah um so i you know just to explain quickly um i still wanted to go to school and so i lied to my teachers my coaches my girlfriends my friends um they all just thought i was living at my uncle's house or you know somewhere else um

but i basically ran track in the morning so I could get a shower every day.

And that's how I was able to go to school because I wanted to go because I was on the track team and it was very good.

And one day I hadn't eaten for three days and I was really, really hungry.

And I walked into this classroom of the teacher.

His name was Mr.

Dean.

And he offers me

something.

I guess I can give it away.

Yeah, you can.

Yeah, he offers me a candy bar because that's all he had.

He had a giant Hershey's candy bar that he was going to eat later that day.

Did he know you were

hadn't eaten in three days?

Because in the movie,

he didn't know.

No, he didn't know, but he saw me trying to get some money and shake the candy machine to get something to fall out.

Plus, I was really skinny.

I was super skinny.

And we try to portray that a couple of times in the film: you know, Nate takes his shirt off, he's in the shower, and you see how skinny this kid is.

And

yeah, so he offers me this candy bar.

And can I tell you, it was the best candy bar I ever ate.

It was so good.

And that was that small planting of the seed of hope in my life.

You know, I didn't know it at the time, but really, that was when I kind of knew, like, all right,

this guy gave me something.

He didn't want anything in return.

You know.

But sadly, I ended up in Juvie in a couple of days after that.

And why did he get involved?

I think he saw, Stan loved the underdog.

Stan loved the kid that sat in the back row and didn't talk, that the other teachers may not have paid attention to, called the bad kid.

He just gravitated towards those that were hurting, and he could see that.

He had empathy for people.

He saw me in that classroom sitting in the back, not talking, not participating.

And he so badly wanted me to participate.

And I think you know, he loses his mother not too long before this.

And so there's a void in his life.

And I think it was just timing too.

I think it was

like he's in my classroom.

We kind of bonded in the classroom, which I had never had with a teacher before, because every morning he said,

you know,

hey, good morning, Nate.

And when he graded my papers, when I probably deserved a D or an F, he would give me a C and say, hey, keep trying, keep trying.

And so I saw that there was something.

And I think he saw that there was something in me.

And then for him to come to

the jail cell

and to say, hey, I want to help you.

Like, you need help.

I'm here to help you.

And that was probably one of the most incredible days of my life, really.

You know, as I'm watching the movie, and I'm sorry if you're listening to us, I'm so sorry that I'm being cryptic on all of this, but I just, this is such a good movie, and I don't want to wreck the experience because the way I experienced it, it just all unfolds in front of you.

Don't read anything about this movie, just go see it.

And so

I'm sorry that you're not going to get the full experience of this.

You come back and listen to this podcast after you've seen the movie.

But I was so afraid as I was watching him in the teacher's lounge, and he was saying, this is a good kid.

You know, aren't we supposed to, and all the teachers were turning on you.

I thought to myself,

God help me, which one of the teachers would I be?

It would be so easy to be not him,

you know?

And

I wondered why he

was

like that.

I mean, what...

Was it just the way he was?

Was it he was actually living his faith?

what was it about him that made him

go ahead?

No, sorry.

Stan

was a man of faith.

And,

you know, he always believed in helping others.

And he got that from his mom.

His mom was such an incredible woman.

And she doted on him as a child.

She told him all the time that she loved him, that she was proud of him.

She heard all of the things that I think a child should hear growing up, even the discipline parts.

Very giving, very unconditional love.

Like that, that was who he was.

He wasn't just that way towards me.

He loved his students.

He loved teaching.

He loved teaching so much that he didn't even get married because he knew that that would take away from teaching and

directing plays

at the school.

So

he was just very, that's just who he was.

He was such a man of integrity and a man of faith and a man who lived, you know,

the way I think we're supposed to live, helping others.

And he never wanted anything in return.

And that's why he's the hero of this story.

And I'm absolutely okay with that.

Can I ask you, I wrote a book years ago called The Christmas Sweater, and it was about my childhood.

I didn't have your childhood, but my mom committed suicide when I was young, and I spiraled out of control.

And,

you know and so I write a book and it was it was a fictionalized it wasn't the true story it was based on it you know what I mean but I fictionalized some of it

I don't think you fictionalized much of this and I know when I went on tour and I did a one-man play called the Christmas sweater I played all the roles and it was the hardest thing I've ever done because I had to relive some of my worst things that I had ever done.

And when I'm seeing you betray him in a way towards the end,

what was that like to relive for you?

Yeah, that was really hard.

It's actually the hardest moment of the film isn't some of the hard childhood stuff.

It's when I make a decision.

that

really

sets the movie forward in a very fast-paced, high-energy, like, oh my word, what's about to happen?

You know, he he but he didn't give up on me.

That's what's amazing.

I kept making bad choices.

It didn't mean that he had to give in to me,

but I pushed his buttons as much as I could because I wanted to know if he cared for me.

But again, I made bad decisions one after another, and he just kept reminding me of who I was, that I could make better decisions.

And I think that's hard for people.

I think people just get frustrated with people very quickly and can leave a child behind very, very quickly.

So

I want to take a one-minute break and then I want to come back and ask you because there's a couple things that

came to mind almost to the very beginning of the movie for me was

never judge somebody.

You have no idea.

what's going on in their life.

And

that I got right from the very beginning, but boy, at the end, you're like, wow, is that true?

And how the kindness of one person,

small, a candy bar, can be the pivot point in somebody's life.

I want you to talk about those two things, if you can,

when we come back.

Nathaniel Dean, the movie is Brave the Dark.

It's one of my favorite movies.

It's so good and such a great uplifting message.

I hate to say it that way because that's what made me not want to go to it.

I'm like, I don't want to see a message.

But it's not.

It's just a great movie.

Nathaniel Dean will join us back here in 60 seconds.

First, what if I told you the investment

of, you know, a little time today, you could actually get it paid off significantly

by paying significantly less for your phone service.

But you'd also be dealing with a phone company that shares your values, not, you know,

you know, they're not sending money to Planned Parenthood.

God, I hate that.

If you're with Verizon, why are you doing that?

Why?

Why are you doing that to yourself?

Don't betray your own values.

There's a choice and you're going to save money and you're going to get exactly the same sell service.

If you're on one of the three big networks, you're going to get the same sell service.

You're going to get it for less.

They're going to give you a free month of service and it's helping prop up the values that you care about.

My father was an angry man.

I'm not a bad person.

I'm just like him.

Nathan Williams, you're under arrest.

I'm here to see Nathan Williams.

Are you family?

No, I'm his teacher.

You don't belong here, and we're gonna get you out.

Do you have any family I can call?

No one.

You gotta get back in school.

You have a convicted felon living with you.

A poor little homeless boy from a charity case that would make you feel good.

What?

You don't realize that this is your only chance.

Screw you, dude.

Screw me, really?

You're not a social worker.

There's a good kid there.

Sorry, friend.

Robin, you have brought him back here.

What exactly do you know about this kid?

I know he was living out of his car for two years, going hungry.

You gotta be careful.

This is not the same as being their teacher.

That's uh, take a deep breath.

Stay in your first priority is to the school.

Isn't my first priority to my students?

What?

All of them?

Failure to graduate guarantees you serve the sentence in full.

You're gonna try to fix me, you know any people who tried?

Maybe we're getting somewhere.

Come on, what else you got?

Come on.

A liar.

A loser.

I've heard it all before.

You know, whether it's something your dad did to you or your mom didn't do, you have got to deal with it.

You weren't there.

Why are you here, Michael Dick?

I care that you don't go to prison.

Some kids are born behind the eight ball.

I can't do this.

And I'm cursed.

We're lying to me when we say everything's going to work out just fine.

But don't those kids deserve the same chance as the others?

So good.

Brave the Dark is the name of the movie.

Can't recommend it highly enough.

It is so good.

Nathaniel,

talk to me about

what you walk away with.

and how important it is.

Yeah, I really,

I think the powerful message of the importance of human connection and selfless acts of kindness just shine in the film.

You know, that candy bar that Stan gave me, that teacher gave me,

was so important in beginning our relationship moving forward

because he didn't know at the time, and neither did I, that that small act of kindness really brought hope to my life.

And I think,

you know, when you leave this theater, you'll feel uplifted, even though it has lots of dark content and

trauma in it.

Man, I think you'll leave the theater feeling like you want to be a better person, that you want to be like Stan Dean in your own community.

And that's what I hope,

and that they'll be inspired by the message of hope and redemption

and be like Stan in where they live,

to those around them.

Did you go through a period?

I know

I know each one of my sisters and I, when we hit the age my mother killed herself, we all thought, okay, I didn't do that.

We all thought we were born with this.

Did you go through

much of your life worrying that you would be your dad?

I did

early on.

You know, we even hint at that in the film at the end.

um yeah and um but there were moments that i i really felt um like a bad person uh and i felt the curse of of generational you know

uh i don't know what the word is but just felt curse i was yeah i was cursed i wasn't i wasn't gonna ever be somebody even though i wanted to be i just felt like everything was holding me back and a lot of it was myself

and and blaming myself for something my you know bothered me it always it always is.

Nathaniel, could you hold on just a sec?

I want to talk to you during the break.

The name of the movie is Brave the Dark.

It's about this man's life, and it is five stars.

Go see it.

This is Glenn Beck.

Sometimes the cost of doing one's duty comes at a very, very high price, and there are heroes in this country and abroad, service members and first responders alike, who have given everything, given everything.

And

they've done it for us, to serve us.

Who's there to help them and serve their families?

Who exactly is on the front lines for those who are on the front line?

Well, I'll tell you, it is an amazing organization called the Tunnelled Towers Foundation.

Their Gold Star Fallen First Responder, their Smart Home and Homeless Veteran program comprise their in the line of duty programs.

They're dedicated to honoring our nation's heroes and their families, engaging people also all across the country in 9-11 remembrance all across the country.

They host over 80 walks, runs, climbs, dozens of golf outings.

They do everything they can to raise money and awareness for our heroes.

The

Tunnel to Towers 9-11 Institute educates kids so they'll never forget either.

More than 95 cents of every dollar you donate to Tunnel to Towers goes to its programs and right to our nation's heroes and their families.

Please, would you donate $11 a month to tunnel to towers at t2t.org?

That's number 2t.org.

Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

It's really one of my favorite podcasts that we've done.

This one is just fun.

It was the Diesel Brothers.

Do you know who the Diesel Brothers are, Pat?

I'm not familiar with them, no.

So the Diesel Brothers are these guys, they're these YouTube guys.

They were on, I think, Discovery

or...

one of those channels.

They had a show on there for a long time and they were doing, you know, diesel engines and, you know, just making incredible,

you know, trucks uh and then the pandemic hit and they weren't happy because they were kind of doing the same thing over and over again and they

you know it's it they're so much like me in a way you know how everybody always complains uh about me that works for me they're like glenn what are we we're changing again what do we do what yeah uh and it's like it's because they're evolving as people and i evolve as a person and uh and uh so they started getting into

rescues and doing things that no one else could do.

Like, you know, you can go to their YouTube page and you'll see them, this, you know, million-dollar mobile home.

You know, they took it out.

Somebody took it out to the desert and it sank.

And so then they had to tow that thing out.

But to get it out,

I mean, they destroyed, you know,

so many things trying to get this thing out.

And it's kind of fun to watch.

But then they got into serious rescues.

And, you know living by the mountains they're doing air rescues one of them owns a black hawk helicopter and can fly it and is an expert at flying it and they had just when i talked to them i think i talked to him last week and they had just uh gotten off of a rescue i think it was in new mexico or nevada Do we have that cut where they're talking about coming off the rescue?

Here it is.

January 2nd, a guy guy named Michael Martin leaves Las Vegas in his little plane.

His wife and he and his wife had like a little dispute the night before, nothing crazy.

They believe he left to maybe go blow off some steam.

Well, he didn't tell the family where he was going.

He didn't tell them that he was going even for a flight.

They didn't know until the 4th or 5th of January when they found the plane missing.

From then, they started tracking the flight and the transponder and his iPad and his watch and everything.

And his last known location was around Mount Jefferson, which is basically central Nevada, just a little bit north of Tonopa.

Very rugged, very desolate terrain.

The mountain about 12,000 foot elevation, big, crazy mountain.

And so they thought, well, he's got to be around here.

So they snow, I imagine.

Snow, lots of blowing snow, crazy weather.

So this became like a national phenomenon.

Every news outlet in the country picked it up.

And anytime somebody goes missing or something happens, our phone starts ringing and our email inbox just gets full.

Hey, you got to help.

You got to get involved.

Well, we were off-grid filming some other winter content series for the last couple of weeks, so we didn't have the ability to jump into the search.

Around January 18th, a fishing game warden that was determined, awesome kid, awesome kid.

He was bound to determine to figure out what happened to this plane.

He hikes four hours into the most treacherous backcountry you can see and doesn't make it all the way to the top, but he's able to get to the base of a cliff and with binoculars, glasses the whole hillside and he finds the plane crash.

So at that point, there's no way he could have gotten to the wreck site.

It was another 3,000 foot elevation through

four feet of drifted snow.

It was impossible to access.

So goes back, calls the authorities, every state agency that had a helicopter or an aircraft, got in the air, they started searching, and it got to the point where they just said, we cannot access this crash site.

It's not safe.

We don't know what to do.

Meanwhile, the family thinks that there's a chance that dad, husband, maybe still is alive.

The footage or the pictures they got of the wreckage were pretty rough, so it didn't look survivable.

So there's a lot of drama between

local law enforcement, state authorities, the family, because the family's like, hey, go rescue our dad.

And the state's saying, we can't.

We don't have the capabilities.

We don't have the aircraft.

We don't have the manpower.

Nobody is willing or capable to do this job because our resources are limited.

They called the National Guard.

National Guard said, nope, we can't do it.

Can't touch it.

It's out of our wheelhouse.

The terrain is just too nasty.

So finally, that's when

our emails, we probably received a thousand emails at that point.

So we got home from filming.

I called the family and said, hey, I understand what you're up against.

Will you accept our help?

We'd like to, you know, go get your dad.

And, you know, just broke down in tears, said your answer to our prayers.

You know, nobody could help us.

No, nothing, nobody was going to be able to solve this problem for us.

Had you seen the terrain?

You knew what you were flying into?

A little bit.

So after that, I asked for the contact information for whoever was in charge of the case, Chief Scott Lewis of

Nye County Emergency Management out in Nevada.

Called him up, said who I was, what I wanted to do, and he's he's like,

don't call me again.

Like,

this is way out of your, you know, range.

We don't need your help.

We've got all the resources, everything's covered.

And I thought, there's a chance this guy doesn't quite understand who we are and what we do.

And he said, look, if anything changes, I'll give you a call back.

But as of right now, stand down.

Well,

he goes on to tell the story and how they rescued

or actually found and recovered the body of this guy.

And it is

an amazing,

in other words, right?

They did not stop.

They didn't stand down.

No, they did not stand down.

And they are now training some of the people in that state on how to do rescue missions because it was beyond their ability and beyond most people's abilities.

Not that this state was bad at it.

These guys just have a real knack for it.

But

we talked about how it is so important for individuals to

do and use your skill to be able to help others.

You know, we talked about all the stuff Mercury One's doing and what he's doing.

And we're going to start working together on some projects, which are great.

He also, you know, I saw those guys,

what, maybe in June, I was at a Trump rally

and I was backstage with President Trump and

they were there.

And

we were talking and

they had some observations on Donald Trump that I thought were really good, things that I had never even noticed,

and people around Donald Trump and how they act.

And

these guys are very insightful, very insightful.

But we also, I took them to my house afterwards,

and because I've, you know, I have an old race car, a 1934 race car from Le Mans, and it has spoke wheels.

And I made a promise to Jay Leno that I would drive it at least once a week to work.

And I can't because the wheels are so out of alignment.

And I've been, for a year, I've been trying to find somebody that would, you know, could tune the spokes.

You know, you remember.

You know, back in the 60s, MGs and everybody, they had those spoke wheels.

Well,

you can't get anybody to balance them anymore.

Nobody knows how to do it.

So they were over there and they saw some of the car collection and they were like, have you ever raced any of these?

And I said, no.

And I said, I've wanted to.

And they said,

well,

why don't you ship us this car and we'll fix this one.

But will you ship a couple of the others too?

And

let's go race them.

So we're going to, this summer,

we're going to go to some track, I think, in Utah,

and

put them all up.

I have a friend who

runs a dealership, a Lamborghini dealership, and he's got, he drives one of the top-of-the-line Lamborghinis.

He was telling me about it the other day, and I'm like, have you really stepped on it yet?

And he's like, oh, it'll curl your hair.

So I just want to put them all in a row.

you know, from that to a 1934 race car and just put them all in a row, line them up and just see the difference on what each of them could do.

Maybe we'll invite people to come, but

I have a really hard time deciding whether to race my Ferrari, my Lamborghini, or my McLaren.

It would be a really

difficult time.

I don't have any of those.

I don't have any of those.

I said I had a friend who had one.

I don't have one.

Yeah.

So,

you know.

Anyway,

it's Friday.

I want to thank Pat for sitting in.

You were in again on Monday, aren't you?

Yes.

Because Stu is just some uppity snob that

goes to the Super Bowl.

And it seems like the Super Bowl ends on Sunday, doesn't it?

Yeah, it does.

Monday would seem to be open, but no, he's not back yet.

So what are the odds?

Tell me, I don't follow any of the odds or anything like that.

What are the odds the Chiefs are going to win?

I think they're pretty good.

I think most people think the Chiefs will win.

Well, I think they will just because of Mahomes in the last 90 seconds.

They could be behind 21 points, and I think in 90 seconds he could probably pull it off.

But I hope it's not that kind of game.

But the Eagles are really good.

Yeah, they are.

They beat my Packers, and

they played really well in the playoffs, especially.

They are good this year.

And

just played something on my show this morning from the, I don't remember what the SEAL's name is, but I think it's a...

Baby SEAL?

No, he's like an actual animal seal

at Club Seal.

SeaWorld.

And he predicted the Eagles were going to win.

They throw out two balls, and whichever one, one is an Eagle ball, and one is Chiefs.

And he brought back the Eagle ball, which means the Eagles.

Oh, wow.

So this is very scientific.

Very scientific.

He's been pretty accurate.

I guess he's three for three.

Yeah, he's three for three.

Wow.

Yeah.

Wow.

So you can take that to the bank.

And it's weird.

I mean, is it a coincidence that's what Mahomes is going for?

Three of three.

No, it's not a coincidence.

It's not a coincidence.

It's fate.

I think it's fate.

Yeah, yeah.

When does Mahomes, excuse me for my ignorance again, when does Mahomes become

better than Brady?

Technically.

He's got a few years for that because Brady was so good for so long.

And Brady has, I think, seven Super Bowl rings.

This will be Mahomes'

fourth,

right three in a row and fourth in a row this will be

yeah right so he's got a ways to go but he's well so he has three rings so far he didn't win he's won the last two did he win the and he won one a couple of years before that okay before that yeah yeah so he's amazing i'm surprised you actually know as much as you do i mean you have i know do you remember i was the guy

I know, I was the guy on my block, and this is absolutely true.

I came over to a friend's house, and it was a bunch of guys getting together, and Mahomes had just signed that huge contract.

I didn't and Mahomes was a neighbor of mine at the time.

I didn't know.

I didn't care.

And

I'm going there and my friend said, did you see the contract that our neighbor just signed?

And I said, oh,

Mahomi?

Mahomes?

And he said, hang on just a second.

He quieted everybody down and he said, Glenn, tell them about the new contract.

And I said, I don't know anything about it.

I don't know Mahomi.

So I'm known in the neighborhood as the guy who calls Patrick Mahomes my

and he is my homie he is my homie so uh

so I boned up a little bit since then yeah to the point where you're having a Super Bowl get together this weekend right have you ever done that before yeah

yeah but only for the commercials the first time my son played football uh he went to try out and uh he you know went out to I don't know catch the ball retrieve the ball whatever you do.

And he went.

There's the Glenn.

We all know what you have.

Yeah.

Right.

So he went, and

the coach called him after a couple of attempts, and he calls him in and he says, Hey, Rafe, come on in for a second.

And so he comes in and he literally said this.

So, Rafe,

have you ever seen this game played?

And

Rafe's response was, well, we watch the Super Bowl every year, but mainly for the commercials.

So

he fell in love with the game.

And so we've, you know, I've been watching it with him.

And,

you know, I have him to explain it to me.

So I understand it now.

He's kind of like the role.

The role of dad and son are reversed on Sundays.

He's more like the father explaining it to his son on how it's played.

But anyway, go Kansas City.

All right, let me tell you about Relief Factor.

If you have pain every day, I know what it's like.

I used to wake up every day and think, I can't do it.

I used to have so much respect for Pat.

I don't anymore.

But I used to have so much respect for Pat because he lives ever since I've known him, you know, 35 years, he's lived in just excruciating pain that nothing can touch.

You know, and then I had my little baby pain, and I was like, wow, I'm just like Pat and I really respect him.

My wife didn't think that.

She was like, stop the whining and try this.

And so she gave me Relief Factor and I tried it and it took my pain away.

It's the only thing that I could take that would actually break the back of this pain that I had.

I went to doctors, everybody.

Nobody could stop it.

I don't know how this works.

I mean, I know technically how Relief Factor works.

It, you know, works with your body to fight inflammation as for all all natural ingredients, blah, blah, blah.

You take it every day.

But I don't know how it worked, what it did, but it broke the back of my pain.

And I highly recommend you try it.

Get the three-week quick start.

Just try it for three weeks.

Take it exactly as directed.

See if it doesn't work for you.

$19.95, less than a dollar a day.

Get out of pain.

800 for Relief.

800, the number 4 relief, relieffactor.com.

There you have it.

The truth.

Stripped down like a fence post in a prairie storm.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

We're glad you're here.

Pat is back on Monday.

Yes.

I will be gone on Tuesday.

I am going to be with Patrick Bett David.

I'm going to be doing his show, and then he's going to be doing mine.

And so I will be in Florida on

Tuesday and Wednesday.

And then I've got a speech to give in San Antonio and back in Dallas on Thursday.

But are you doing the show Wednesday and Thursday?

You're doing the show, though.

I'm doing it Wednesday and Thursday.

I'm just missing Tuesday because of scheduling.

So I know you were going to miss me, Pat.

I know you're going to miss me.

Big time.

Yes, very much so.

You don't have to worry about that now.

Okay, good.

You got that going for you.

Good.

Yeah.

Is there anything that we have missed?

Yeah, we didn't talk about

the stolen eggs.

100,000

stolen eggs.

How do you steal that?

Without breaking them all?

I don't know.

Because you know they must be stolen to sell, I would think.

Yeah.

I mean,

is that what I mean?

I have no idea how there's an egg ring, and I love all of the media reports.

They say they hope police crack the case.

Oh,

man.

Oh, that's rich.

That is

funny.

So funny.

Oh, golly.

On Monday, we're going to talk a little bit about how Microsoft hasn't scaled any of its programs on DEI back.

There are a few companies taking a stand.
